A PARK CITY SENSATION.
A Woman Charged with Attempt to
Poison Her Husband.

For several days a vague rumor was
floating around to the effect that Mrs.
Terry Sweeney had tried to poison her
husband, by administering Rough on
Rats, and came near succeeding in her
fendish design. We tried to get at the
facts in the case, but failed until Thurs
day, when the whole matter came out
and the woman was arrested while
trying to fee the country.
The deed was done, it is supposed,
for the insurance carried by Mr..
Sweeney, and has been in progress of
contamination for some time. Mr..
Sweeney is employed at the Ontario
mine, and some weeks ago pro-
nounced as suffering from lead poison,
and went to the hospital at Salt Lake:
Being removed from the effects of
and returned home. After being at
home few days, he was again taken
sick and has been gradually growing
worse, and would have been murdered
had it not been for the 13-year-old
daughter of Mr.. Dan Martin, who dis
covered what was going on and told
Mr.. Sweeney. The matter was hushed
up for the sake of the wOman's family,
but gradually leaked out, and puolic
opinion, that great vindicator of JUS
tice, began to move. The doctors
were approached, but were very reticent
bout giving facts in the matter.
Wednesday night the woman left town,
having in her possession a ticket to
Canada, sold by Agent Nichols. The
fact was discovered early Thursday
morning and the telegraph set to work.
1t was learned that woman and two
children had taken the train at WanshIp
and said she was going to Evanston.
Sheriff Allison was telegraphed to and
he rode over to Echo and arrested the
woman Just before the east-bound train
arrived, and brought her to Park City
on the afternoon freight. She is now
CHARTERED at the Park City Hotel under
guard, and will have hearing this
(Friaay) afternoon.
The dose that would have finished
her work, was prepared carelessly, evil
IDENTIFY under strong excitement and the
influence of drink. The little girl saw
her place the drug in the medicine, and
asked her what it was; she said lit is
pepper" After the mixture, which
was in a bowl, had been prepared, she
told the little girl to give it to Mr..
Sweeney while she went for the doctor,
as he was much worse and she was
afraid he would die. Instead of giving
it to the sick man she told him what it
was, and when Mrs. Sweeney returned
with the doctor, instead of finding a
corpse as she fully expected, she found
her guilt discovered. 1t is an awful
crime, and was successfully covered up
from the 7th to the 10th. The woman
comes to the worst.-CaU.

BoliVia's Wealth.

Bolivia is doubtless the richest in
minerals of any land on the globe, and
millions upon millions of precious
metals have been taken out of her mines
by the primitive process which still ex-
lists, and must exist until railroads are
constructed to carry machinery there.
Every ounce of ore that finds it's way
out of the Andes is carried on the back
of man or llama, and the quartz is
crushed by rolling heavy logs upon it.
By this method Bolivia exports from
1900. 900 to Is, OO0, 900 of gold and silver
annually, and the output would be
fabulous if modern machinery could be
taken into the mines. The distance
from Jujuy to the farthest mining dis
trict of Bolivia is 700 miles, and it is no
farther to the diamond fields of Brazil.
Bolivia offers grant of twelve square
leagues of land and $40 600 a mile for
the extension of the Argentine North
ern to Sucre, and English capitalists
are ready to continue the work as soon
as the Argentine government drops it
at the boundary line. When it is built
the owners of the road will hold the key
to a country which has excited the
cupidity of adventures since the new
world was discovered. 1t has fur
nished food for four centuries
of fable, and armies of men have died
in search of its treasures. A territory
,as large as that which lies between the
Mississippi River and the Rocky
Mountains remains entirely unexplored.
On its borders are the richest of sgri-
cultural lands, immense tracts of tim
bar, diamond-strewn streams, and the
silver and gold deposits of Cerro de
Pasco and Potosi. What lies within is
the subject of speculation. The tales of
explorers who have attempted to pene-
trate It's mysteries read like the old
romances of Golconda and FL Dorado
of the Amazons, where the women
warriors wore armors of solid gold, but
the swamps and the mountains, the
rivers that can not be forded and the
iungles that forbid search, the absence
of food and the difficulty of carrying
sufficient supplies on foot, with the
other obstacles that have prevented
exploration, will be overcome eventu
ally. and the secret that has tantalized
the world for four centuries will be told
by ambitious scientists.-ScTi6ner's
Monthly.

TO KEEP PIPES SWEET.
Use Meerschaum Bowls and Plenty
of WaxeIrOOt Stems.

Eyes, but my pipe gets so strong"
That's no reason why you should
smoke cigarettes.
But, doctor. can t afford to smoke
cigars" urged the young man, whose
family physician was lecturing him for
INDUCING in the cigarette habit.
There is no need of that either"
81 don't see how you make that out, "
replied the youth.
"You can smoke pipe that never gets
strong"
Yes, but don't like Turkish pipes.
They are cumbersome, and the long
stem is always in the way"
II don't mean that kind of pipe. l
mean meerschaum."
"Meerschaum2 Why, / have had a
dozen, and they always get strong"
There Is where you are mistaken. A
meerschaum pipe that is properly
smoked never gets strong, but the stem
does. Change the stem once or twice in
an evening. Use Waxelroot stems.
They keep swee CT longer than any other
wood in the world"
That's all right about the stem, but
how do you keep the bowls from getting
strong?"
by properly coloring them. Use a
button in the bottom of the bowl. That
will prevent the pipe from being burnt
Then take care not 10 smoke fast
enough 20 overhead the pipe. The
porous material will absorb the nicotine,
and the longer it is smoked the sweeter
it is. Try il once, and if you don't pre-
fer it to a cigarette III pay for the

The Week.

At Mr.. Hanauer's Office, the week was
reported as having been moderately
brisk. Park City was represented by
unusually good shipments, and Bling
ham and Stockton also came to the
front. American Fork District, which
has been in quiescent state tor so long
a time, was again represented.
and number of other properties un-
represented for considerable period,
also demanded the attention of the ore
